Will dovish Hagel make US less trigger-happy?
24.01.2013
Vladimir Orlov

The US now faces a very difficult dilemma. On the one hand Obama declared – Assad should go. On the other - Assad is still there, he doesn’t want to leave. I think the nomination of Chuck Hagel, again, if it is confirmed by the Senate, would send a very clear signal – the US would fight diplomatically against Assad but would not be involved militarily there. And this is again a major shift of course from the Bush policies, but also from Obama policies.
